At this depth, pale counters or trim help the shape read clearly. Aged brass or pale counters keep the blue-green readable. White tile makes it cleaner. In dim light, expect the color to lean darker and moodier.

Fish Story in Different Light
Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV
16.3LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
